Excerpt:
“If I were into chicks, I would
so totally do you.”
“You are into chicks, Lily.”
“Not exclusively.” Wagging
perfectly sculpted eyebrows, Lily Collins, my best friend since braces, draped
her arm over my shoulders and then motioned at the dressing room mirror. “All
joking aside, Gen, you’re totally smoking in this nightie. I mean, just look at
the way it shows off your rack. Who wouldn’t be mesmerized?”
Cocking my head to the side, I
scrutinized my reflection. Lily had a point. The deep blue baby-doll possessed
a certain breast-defying quality, and anything that could make The Girls stay
in place was a testament to modern fashion design.
A delicate floral lace covered
demi-style cups. A satin sash tied beneath the bodice, contributing to the
grand illusion that gravity hadn’t waged a thirty-five-year war on my breasts.
The same transparent lace overlaying the bodice fell in flowing waves, stopping
just below my ass. The fabric managed to cover enough of my lower belly and
inner thighs to keep me from feeling completely insecure.
Overall, I gave the ensemble a
rating of classy with a side of seduction. Option number two, however, had a
rating scale all its own.
I plucked said option from its
hook and fitted it against me. The provocative two-piece leather bustier
shouted sex. No, it screamed sex. The pure unadulterated kind that left you
utterly exhausted and dripping wet between the thighs.
A purple center strip — overlaid
with black lace — added a splash of color. The leather had hugged and shaped my
torso like a second skin and sent my breasts spilling over their cups in what I
hoped was an enticing display of cascading flesh. More precisely, I hoped Liam,
my business partner and one of my closest friends, would find it enticing.
Liam England and I had met in an
“Introduction to Programming” class in college, and an instant friendship had
bloomed. Emphasis on friendship. And over the years, we’d remained close. We
hung out on the weekends. We talked about the people we’d dated and those we
wanted to date. We watched old movies. I’d been someone to lean on as his wife
had fought — and eventually lost — her battle with cancer. He’d been the same
for me after my husband had been arrested for soliciting a prostitute.
Our relationship, in many ways,
was already very intimate, but we’d never crossed the friends-to-lovers line.
I’d never really wanted to. At least I hadn’t thought I wanted to, but then
he’d told me his National Guard unit was going back to Afghanistan, and in that
moment, everything had changed.
Now, thoughts of Liam occupied my
every waking moment. I wanted him like I’d never wanted another man, and thanks
to Lily, I had a plan guaranteed to seduce my sexy soldier. Well, most of a
plan. A few details still needed to be ironed out, like where we’d go and what
I’d wear.
Lily gathered my mess of auburn
curls into a loose knot against my head. “Just imagine what you’ll look like
when you make your move on Liam. Hair pulled up. A little natural make-up
giving your creamy complexion some color. Your skin soft and fragrant from a
spa prep day. Fingernails and toenails painted to match the blue or purple of
whichever sex-tacular lingerie you choose.” She made a show of lifting the
front hem of my outfit. “And maybe I can even talk you into getting a Brazilian
wax so Liam doesn’t have to hike through miles of bush to get at your juicy
treasures.”
Laughter broke through anxiety,
and I pushed her hand away. “Lily Collins, you’re incorrigible.”
“You know that’s right.” Grinning
like the Cheshire Cat, she let my curls fall. “I can’t help it, especially when
it comes to helping my main girl get laid.”
Before I could stop them, a swarm
of erotic images invaded my thoughts. Me with my legs spread, a certain
gloriously handsome blond between them. Kissing me, making love to me.
Liam
...
I shivered, the images growing
more vivid. Desire heated my blood and sent an arousing heat shooting straight
to my —
“Oh. My. Gawd!” Lily squealed.
“You’re picturing it, aren’t you? You and Liam getting it on.”
“No!” I lied. “Of course, not. I
was just —”
“Liar, liar, crotchless panties
on fire.”
Damn Lily Collins for being able
to read me so well. “Okay, fine. I was picturing it. So what?”
“So nothing.” Her lips curled
into a sweet, yet sad smile. “I only wished you’d realized how you felt about
him earlier.”
“Me too.” With Liam heading
overseas soon, I didn’t have the luxury of time. I had to tell him how I felt
sooner rather than later, and how and where I told him depended on the lingerie
I took home. My choice in clothing would define the role I played. The sexy
girl-next-door who lures her conquest with promises of sensual food served in a
quiet, yet provocative setting. Or the bad girl who entices her man with a
night of public fornication at The Erogenous Zone, an exclusive Dallas club
where sexuality and anonymity rule.
But which role did I want to
take?
Crap, I usually wasn’t so
indecisive.
My shoulders slumped, my gaze
sliding to the ceiling. “I can’t decide, Lily. I like them both.”
“There’s no wrong answer. Either
one you choose, you’ll knock Liam’s pants off. Literally.”
“Well, that’s the idea.” I handed
Lily the bustier. “I’m making this too hard, aren’t I?”
“Pretty much.” Lily wrapped an
arm around me. “Stop stressing and listen to your gut. What does it say?”
“That I should forget all this
seduction madness and just tell Liam how I —”
“Genevieve Foster, don’t you
dare!” Lily turned me so I faced her. “The man you love’s about to go to war.
Doesn’t he deserve to be wooed?”
“He’s a guy. I doubt he gives a
rat’s ass about ‘wooing.’”
“True. But what about you? Don’t
you want to give him a sendoff he’ll never, everforget?”
My eyelids drifted closed. I
wanted to give Liam my body, yes, but I wanted to give him my heart, too. I
wanted him shipping out knowing I loved him. No strings attached. He didn’t
have to return my affection — although I wouldn’t lie, I’d be ecstatic if he
did.
“Yes,” I finally answered.
“All right then!” Turning me so I
again faced the mirror, Lily held the leather bustier beside me so I could
examine both outfits simultaneously. “Which way do you want to play this?”
I pictured myself in both
scenarios. Wearing the baby-doll in my living room while offering Liam
chocolate-covered nipples as a sexual appetizer. Or hiding the bustier under a
flirty wraparound dress as Liam and I indulged in whatever sinful pleasures
we’d encounter at The Erogenous Zone. Either way, Liam and I were in for one
erotic adventure.

Author Interview :
1. How did you come
up with the title?
Honestly, the title pretty much decided itself. The story’s
about a woman who sets out to seducethe soldier she loves. A Soldier’s Seduction.It was my working title, before the story was
fully formed, and it simply stuck. :)
2. What are some of
the references that you used while researching this book?
I’m not sure you want to know, lol.
For ASoldier’s
Seduction, I did Google searches for “sex clubs,” “lap dances,” “fondue
recipes,” “skewers,” and “club orgies” just to name a few. I shudder to think
what someone might think of me if they examined my Google search history.
3. What do you think
most characterizes your writing?
Wow, tough one. But I’d like to think the heat between my characters.
I love reading about characters with amazing sexual chemistry, so that’s what I
try to pen too.
4.What was the
hardest part of writing this book?
The four different endings off course, LOL. Keeping details
straight when you’re ADD is hard enough, but when you have multiple storylines
going simultaneously, things get hard, LOL.
5. What did you enjoy
most about writing this book?
The four different endings! Yeah, yeah, I knowI just said the
four endings was the most difficult (and it was) but it was so very rewarding
too. I got to play the “What If?” game. And who doesn’t love the “What If?”
Game?
What if my H/h go to the club?
Well, what if they went back to her place?
What if she just told him the truth?
What if they play a sexy game first?
Oh how the mind races!
6. Do you have a
specific writing style?
I don’t know. Maybe, LOL. I just like to write hot. ;-) But
I also love to really play around in my characters head too, get deep into
their POV.
7. What are your
current projects?
I’ve signed with Silk Words for another CYOA story titled Uniform Seduction. It’s set in the same
world as A Soldier’s Seduction and features Gen’s best gal pal, Lily Collins,
as she has to decide between two equally yummy soldier’s: a female Drill
Sergeant or a male Marine Captain.
8. Is there a message
in your novel that you want readers to grasp?
About
the Author:
Brandi Evans was raised by a
caravan of traveling Gypsies. She spent her days learning the ways of her
people and her nights lost in legends as old as time. Okay, not really, but
that's way more interesting than the truth!
In reality, Brandi grew up the
oldest child of an ordinary family. Grade school, middle school, high school.
Nothing extraordinary happened until she left the nest. She joined the
military, went to college, got married, and became a mom. And somewhere along
the way, she discovered she liked to read—and write!—stories hot enough to melt
eReaders.
These days, she calls The Natural
State home where she lives with her hubby, two beautiful daughters, two dogs
and a cat who has yet to realize she doesn’t own the place. Soldier. Wife. Mom.
Multi-published smut writer. Brandi's life might not be "traveling
Gypsy" interesting, but she's had fun. And in the end, isn't that all that
really matters?
